A brake assembly (10) is provided. The brake assembly (10) includes a housing (8), a rotor disc (2), the rotor disc (2) including at least one internal cavity (7), wherein the at least one internal cavity (7) includes a pawl (4) and a thermal fuse (3). In use, the thermal fuse (3) is configured to maintain the position of the pawl (4) in the at least one internal cavity (7) when a temperature is below a predetermined threshold, and wherein the thermal fuse (3) is configured to melt when a predetermined threshold of temperature is reached during braking to release the pawl (4) out of the at least one internal cavity (7) towards the housing (8). The housing (8) includes at least one recess configured to receive the pawl.
